Plovdiv

Plovdiv is the second largest city in Bulgaria. It’s situated in the west part of Upper Thracian Lowland, in the Maritsa River valley. It has population of about 376000 and is located 140 km away from the capital Sofia and 20 km from Assenovgrad. Plovdiv is one of the ancient cities in Europe; it has nearly 8000 years of history. It arose in the 5th century BC as a Thracian settlement, called Eumolpia. Later the city was conquered by Philip II of Macedonia and in his honour was named Philippopolis. Romans gave it the name of Thrimonzium. In the 6th century Slavs settled in the valley of the Maritsa River and introduced the name Pulden. In 1364 it fell under Ottoman rule and was renamed Filibe. In the first half of the 19th century the city flourished economically. In 1956 the old town was declared an architectural reserve. The Ethnographic Museum is housed in one of the biggest houses from the Revival period. The house has twelve rooms with two craft roofs, and wall painting. Many of the crafts are presented in the museum exposition. Another places of interest in the Old town are the clock tower, Sahat tepe, the ancient pharmacy, the antique amphitheater, etc. Plovdiv hosts the International Fair twice a year.
